an electronish puzzle

I read in sci.electronics.design that Fred Bartoli wrote (in ) about 'an electronish puzzle', on Tue, 22 Mar 2005:

Actually, he still needs a sniff of N750 to *increase* the overall TC. But yes, it was a PITA correcting drift this way, especially as you had to wait at least an hour to see the results of any change.

So he has to get the missing 30ppm by carefully hand selecting NPO?

What a paint in the arse...

SMT inductors often have a NTC. How about putting one in series with the capacitor?

Most non-NPO capacitors have neg. voltage coef. So do SC cut crystals.

Oh didn't ya' know? You're supposed to consider yourself *privileged* to receive direction from Larry Brasfield. Seriously, the p.o.s. *has* to be posting from an asylum somewhere.

Who ever said that LB was nice? But try y = k*exp(ln(x)) + c. (;-)

I suggest you go to all the ceramic cap makers you can find and plead for a few (thousand?) parts from ANY reasonable-valued run of NTC that they happen to be doing (or have as unallocated stock).

Well- why haven't you? You said it has been some 30 years. Guess you're just a blowhard p.o.s. and not good for much beyond shooting your pseudo-intellectual mouth off...just like you do with so-called posts, all hot air and no follow-through.

A "long-record" scope, and an "expectable response"-hmmm- sounds like someone is failing rapidly. Looks like every time you open your a-hole mouth, you advertize you're an idiot....

Well- well, well, well- nobody should hold their breath waiting for your so-called lab report - now should they....confused idiot, recording "expectable" responses.

Great story. Robert Wood was a physicist and humorist; he wrote "How To Tell The Birds From The Flowers", which I've got to read now. He tried to reproduce Blondlot's N-ray experiments, without result, and complained of "wasting an entire morning" in the effort. He got invited to the lab in Nancy and played tricks on them in the dark.

Please do. It's great stuff.

Ah, but then you haven't seen my collection of colorful little earthenware coffee pots.

John

That's your take on it- but then everyone knows you are smug narcissist who isn't nearly as smart, creative , and fun as you think you are. There is no great effort to prove Clarence is stupid- that is immediately apparent from his posts- a lot brain damage/defect and ignorance.

There is more of your narcissism- like who cares what you do or do not respect. And I don't know why you would have any respect for me- I certainly have none for you- this should be clear to you by now- what's there about you to respect or even be interested in.

Well, he's civil and has manners. Could be worse (hint, hint.)

Don't be silly. Nothing can go faster than c.

John

What, do you think I would joke, JOKE about my pots? As if!

See abse, and try to show some respect.

John

Knock it off, John! You have me laughing so much my stomach hurts ;-)

...Jim Thompson

Well, Fred keeps tossing these wonderful setups. I should really try to resist.

John

I didn't doubt that you had the pots. I was just laughing at the smooth retort.

Me, I collect Native American art.

So I also have read. He took the prism out of the 'spectrometer'.

Is it true about the american physicist (IIRC) pocketing a vital piece of apparatus during a demonstration, not affecting the outcome and thereby blowing N-rays out of existence?

I might have to read that book.
